I am an Older American - a pc term I just thought of :). I'm not elderly yet but mention this because I have lots of life experience and education and have diverse interests all of which I have spent years studying both formally and informally.

My formal education includes a bachelor's degree in communications/journalism and a master's in education. I like to mix it up and can't see doing one thing for my whole life. I guess I'd be labelled ADD if I grew up in this day and age. I think it's a good thing as I'm always curious and want to know more.

My informal education led to my extensive research on the topic of holistic health and natural alternatives to maintain good health and a healthy weight. I have attended many symposiums and conferences on the subject in addition to conducting lots of personal research.

At the present time, I am a Professional Organizer by day and a webmaster in my spare time. I really never thought I would use the term webmaster for myself, but since joining Wealthy Affiliate, I have 'mastered' enough aspects of running a website that I actually make money running them for other people. So now, I guess I can hold that title as well. Wonders never cease :)

I also love animals (I have two cats and a turtle), photography, scary stuff, gadgets, and of course, reading and writing. For exercise mostly swimming and walking.

The Bounty Hunter Tracker IV is still in the lead for the top metal detector for beginners according to Amazon. Most of the metal detector reviews in 2011 and 2012 for people who have never used one before pointed to the Bounty Hunter Tracker IV. I am so glad they…

I am so jealous of artful people. They see things differently from the rest of us. They take a hunk of wood or metal or glass and see something in it that escapes the less discerning eye. They employ creativity with a true talent for bringing something to life from…

Whether in business or meeting someone new in a personal way, the impression of a handshake often lasts if it is a great handshake or if it the kind you can’t get away from soon enough. Any kind in the middle is generally acceptable but may lack the nice qualities…

Figuring out the first steps to take when organizing anything in the home can be daunting. But figuring out how to organize a closet is easier than tackling a whole room and it’s a good step in the right direction toward clearing out the cluttered areas in your home.

There I was sitting in front of my laptop, trying desperately to learn more than basic html. A book on the subject beside me, a bunch of html code in front of me on a web builder on my pc, a very earnest albeit confused look on my face, and…

A challenge is something you undertake that you know going in will have some degree of difficulty with the anticipation of feeling a sense of victory upon completion. Every day is like a challenge in some way. On days you work, you can meet each task or job as if…

It’s quiet in the house. The cats are curled up on beds or windowsills, napping. I am writing, as usual, on my computer. There are no dogs barking outside, no lawnmowers running. There are no extraneous noises to disturb my mental meanderings.
All of a sudden, the tranquility of the…

When you enter a library, any library, you the first thing you notice is the subdued atmosphere. The same usually holds for bookstores. Employees and volunteers at either usually speak in semi-hushed tones and seem sedate in their manner. Another thing you notice in a library is the faint smell…

There are times in life when others hurt our feelings. It’s unfortunate that people don’t follow the golden rule to treat others the way you want to be treated. But it happens. And it may happen for reasons that have nothing to do with you. You may just be a…
